The Major Project of the Alaska State Elks Association is a Youth Camping Program that provides a one week summer camping experience for 80 boys & 80 girls ages 9 thru 13 from throughout Alaska at no cost to the families . Our Major Project’s mission is to provide a fun & safe camping experience for the underprivileged youth of our Lodges’ communities as well as to the children of our armed forces members who are stationed in Alaska . Our camping program focuses on outdoor activities such as swimming, canoeing in our private lake, hiking, disc golf and other outdoor sports on our 80-plus acre property . We also include arts & crafts activities as well as team building exercises, water safety instruction, archery and nature appreciation in
our program . The camp facility, as part of our Major Project, not only provides for our camping program, but is also used by local Boy Scout Councils, Alaska Department of Fish & Game for hunter safety training and by our Alaska State Elks Association Wounded Veterans Project which sponsors outdoor camping events for our troops returning from a combat zone in need of assistance making the transition from combat duty back to regular peacetime duty . The camp facilities are also available for rent for private events such as weddings, family reunions, etc . and its backcountry location also makes it an excellent starting point for ATV, hunting and snow machining adventures .

In 1949, the Colorado Elks Association adopted Laradon as its major project . Purchasing & donating the original facility that is still used at 5100 Lincoln Street, Denver, CO .

Total Expenditure in current year: $100,000 Est . Expenditure for next year: $100,000This is the 62nd year that the CT Elks Association has had the
Connecticut Children’s Medical Center as its Major Project . It’s focus recently has been their Safe Kids Program which, through education and giving of safety materials endeavors to keep our youngsters out of the hospital . By educating their parents on safety, and providing bicycle helmets, car seats, CO detectors, etc ., this program continues to make strides in reducing the instances of injuries to the children of our state .
This project works well by using our police and fire departments via our local Lodges to conduct seminars on car seat fittings, proper use of bicycle helmets and protecting their families with CO detector explanation and installations .
The Connecticut Elks Association is the title sponsor of the CT Special Olympics Winter Games, donating $30,000 .00 to their cause and providing the volunteers and lunch for the athletes at their volleyball venue every year .

Total Expenditures in current year: $3,000,000 Est . Expenditures for next year: $2,700,000The Idaho State Elks Association began working with
rehab patients in 1947, when it established a convalescent home for children with polio . The effort grew into the Northwest’s premier rehab system, providing state-of-the art, personalized care at the main Elks Rehab Hospital, the Elks Hearing and Balance Center, and Elks Internal Medicine . The Elks also partnered with St . Luke’s Health System to deliver children’s rehab and specialized wound care .
In 2014, the Idaho Elks transitioned away from providing hands-on rehab services and now—through philanthropic grants—focuses on providing financial support to rehab programs and projects .
Grants may be used for equipment, staff training, research, health education programs, and local projects that enhance the lives of rehab patients in Idaho .

across the state of Iowa and to help protect the lives of people and their homes in the state .

Included with the Trailer are two programs: One is on how to call 911 during an emergency and the second one is what you should during
a tornado or severe weather . This trailer is designed to be used by the local fire departments as a training to the youth on fire safety procedures and how to get out of their homes in a safe manner . This State Major has been doing so much in the communities on protecting and teaching children the importance of being safe during a fire and severe weather.

Total Expenditures in current year: $79,000 Est . Expenditures for next year: $79,000Nevada State Elks Association designated “Project Safe
Haven” as its State Major Project in 1990 . It was initated as a joint project between the NSEA & the Department of Human Resources – Division of Child & Family Services . Its sole purpose is to provide the funding for statewide emergency shelter care for abused & neglected children . The donated money is used to support about 150 Safe Haven Homes & for the care that these abused, neglected kids need when they’re removed from harm’s way & placed into Safe Haven foster care homes . Not one penny is used for salaries or administration . All of the Safe Haven Emergency Shelter Care Homes are nonprofit foster homes & are rquired to be licensed by
Nevada’s Revised Statutes & that means they undergo very stringent inspections & investigation before being licensed . Often the Safe Haven Homes are called upon in the middle of the night, weekends & holidays to provide a nurturing & supportive home for children who are traumatized as a result of abuse & neglect .
In addition, the NSEA supports “Camp to Belong” which assists with bringing siblings together who have been separated through placement in different foster homes . The siblings are brought together for one week of camp to permit them to share in the missed holidays & birthdays .

Copper Cannon is a summer camp for underprivileged children age 9-16 years old . Campers attend for one week at no charge to their families .
It’s a “back to nature” type camp where no electronic games, cd or dvd players or cell phones are allowed . Campers sleep in cabins equipped with several bunks and each has a staff counselor in attendance . Elks donated their time and much of the materials required, to build the cabins and other buildings . The camp is supported by donations from various organizations, businesses and personal donations from individuals . Elks are one of the main sources of financial support as well as helping to
clean and maintain the camp grounds and buildings .For many campers, attending is the first time they have
had the experience of camp life . They are taught archery, and crafts and they go hiking and fishing . They enjoy cookouts, swimming and many other activities .
Many of the campers return again and again; some have even gone on to become counselors . When asked why, they say that the camp had such an impact on their life that they wanted to pay it forward by helping other campers get the experience and the chance to make many new friends and for many, give them a new and perhaps better look at life .

Total Expenditures in current year: $800,000 Est . Expenditures for next year: $900,000Elks Camp Moore isn’t the usual special needs children’s
camp as it’s located in the heart of the Ramapo Mountains with a breathtaking view of the valley below & mountains in the distance . When a child vacations here, it’s an experience they never forget, & a view that a handicapped child would not likely ever experience .
We believe that special needs children benefit from camp for new experiences in a new environment, new friends & to participate in activities that will aid them in their general growth . Elks Camp Moore’s primary function is to enable children to use & further develop recreational, social & leisure skills through activities presented in a positive, enjoyable & appropriate manner & in real life situations .
Each child is challenged to try new things or to improve on what they already know . We encourage them to do as much as they can for & by themselves . The guidance of a friendly & understanding counselor is always near .
In 1971, while the New Jersey State Elks were looking for a site for a camp, the trustees of Camp Moore, a camp for
underprivileged children that shut down in the 1930’s, were looking for someone to carry on their work . The camp was donated with the stipulation that the name of A . Harry Moore, former governor of NJ, would be carried on in perpetuity .
More than 30 years later, Elks Camp Moore has grown to great proportions . Composed of over 18 modern buildings, housing 3 modern camper dormitories, a two story dining hall, kitchen, arts & crafts & game room, & a fully equipped infirmary, all air conditioned & handicapped accessible . A large heated pool is completely wheelchair accessible .
The camp director is selected from, & holds a degree in Special Education . Counseling & support staff are hired from the USA & other countries around the world . Over 27 countries have been represented at Elks Camp Moore over the years . Staff is fully trained before camp with ongoing training throughout the season . Majority of the staff return from previous years & are therefore very familiar with the campers & camp life in general . The ratio of counselors to campers is usually 1:2 or 1:1 .

The Cerebral Palsy Commission has implemented a new program emphasizing “grass roots” participation from the state’s Local Lodges .
Funds will be made available for equipment & modifications to equipment & facilities for those with Cerebral Palsy . This could be the purchase of a wheelchair or walker, modifications to equipment (such as wheelchair lights), or modifications to facilities (special needs bath remodels, etc .) .
Checks will only be made out to equipment vendors & suppliers, contractors or Local Lodges . This will give us a check that the money is actually spent for the intended purpose .
Disbursement of funds will be from a statewide pool, with no quota per district . That way, we can help the area with the greatest
need . The Commission will, as much as possible, be equitable in the distribution of funds . Applications are available on-line or given to any individual or family in need by the local C .P . Chair . Once filled out, that application is then mailed or dropped off at the Local Lodge . The application is then approved locally by the Exalted Ruler, Secretary or Local C .P . Chair, and forwarded to the State C .P . Chair . From there the application will be distributed to the full C .P . Commission for consideration and approval . Once a majority has approved the request, a voucher will be sent too the State Treasurer, and a check will be cut . The amount of money available each year will be based on the budget approved at the Spring Convention, and may vary year-to-year based on the success of fundraising efforts .

The TEBT — How It Works The Tennessee Elks Benevolent Trust is a nonprofit Tennessee
Corporation governed by comprehensive By-Laws which provide for a President, Vice President, Secretary, Pledge Secretary, Board of Directors, & several Committees to administer its programs and business affairs . Elks from Tennessee Lodges fill all positions on a voluntary basis . Equal representation is achieved through Board & Committee quotas for each of Tennessee’s three Elks Districts . The TEBT, as Elks most commonly call it, is a subsidiary of its parent corporation, The Tennessee Elks Association (TEA), of which all Tennessee Elks are members . The voting & participation rights of Tennessee Elks are the same for the TEA and TEBT . The TEBT hold midyear & annual meetings in addition to committee & special meetings as the need arises .
A distinctive feature of the TEBT is the provision for a permanent Financial Corpus . All contributions to the TEBT are forever held in trust & all of the investment earnings of the Trust are, in turn, used to carry
out the TEBT major project — a nursing scholarship program . Consequently, every contribution serves as a renewable to student nurses in Tennessee .
History — Growth in Giving The nursing scholarship program was selected as the major project
of TEA in 1956, as a means to relieve a critical shortage of nurses in Tennessee . Over the years, a review clearly shows the need to continue a nurse’s scholarship program .
After the first year, four $600 awards were increased to $700 in 1968 . Two years later, the number of scholarships & the value were increased to twenty-five $900 awards & in 1978 to $1,000 . In 1988, the awards grew to $1,200 with a provision for an automatic 2nd year renewal, if the recipient maintained a “B” average during the first year . In 1993, automatic renewals were increased to three years . Currently, the awards are for $2000 per year including renewals .

Provides one free week of fun & games for over 300 special needs children . The parents also get a one week vacation without having to worry .
Kids are selected via applications from Texas Lodges by a selection panel at the Texas Elks Children’s Service, Inc . (TECSI) center .
The camp is fully staffed with nurses, counselors, camp staff who oversee the horseback riding, swimming, games, & sporting events . Each week concludes with a “graduation night” where each child is presented a special award determined by the counselors and staff.
2. Prosthetic Grant Program:Each Texas Lodge is assessed a per capita amount
that is donated to the program. Lodges then find special needs children, under the age of 18, who are in need of a life-enhancing medical device . Applications are submitted to our TECSI panel who determines the validity and needs of the applicant . The money is then sent directly to the vendor to purchase the equipment and the Lodge will present the device to the applicant .

Total Expenditures in current year: $51,000 Est . Expenditures for next year: $52,000Established in 1988, the West Virginia Elks Major Project promotes charitable, educational, and benevolent activities . The Major Project’s Mission is to organize & sponsor two camps for the mentally and/or physically challenged . Volunteer camp members provide special attention to campers as they participate in stimulating new experiences that are often not available at school or home . Objectives of
the camps include assisting the campers in developing an awareness of their potential as relates to that individual’s disability and helps him/her maximize their own abilities while minimizing their disability, and to further encourage independence and resourcefulness within their own limitations . To many campers, this is their only vacation away from home and something they look forward to .
